Injury to defensive midfielder Sabiu Ibrahim has forced coach Aliyu Zubairu to make one change in the Flying Eagles Starting XI for tonight’s WAFU B U20 semifinal against Niger.
In Sabiu Ibrahim’s place, Suleyman Alabi will start in defensive midfield.
He has been picked ahead of Raphael Oyebanjo and it is the first start for the El Kanemi Warriors midfielder.
Otherwise, it is the same start list for the 2-1 win over Cote d’Ivoire in a final Group B match.
Flying Eagles Starting XI (4-3-3) vs Niger: Ebenezer Harcourt – Kenneth Igboke, Adamu Maigari, Daniel Bameyi (Captain), Haruna Aliyu – Suleyman Alabi, Israel Ayuma, Nasiru Salihu – Bidemi Amole, Arierhi Kparobo, Clinton Jephta
